Last Saturday, June 27th (Virginia dateline) 2009, I went to Monticello, the home of the third US President, Thomas Jefferson.
Life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness…
Sometimes, those things make more sense when we truly encounter the very source of that particular philosophy.
Only then was I able to deeply comprehend the true meaning of life, liberty and pursuit of happiness that Thomas Jefferson was trying unfold.
Also then that I started to discover within myself my own understanding of life, liberty and pursuit of happiness.
May each one of us become inspired and have freedom, liberty and happiness in our day-to-day living. More than that, may each one of us enable others to have freedom, liberty and happiness in their lives as well.

There are three things I am excited about:
1) I am going to Monticello, the home of Thomas Jefferson, tomorrow.
2) I am going to Washington, DC, next week.
3) I am going to North Carolina, the home of Nicholas Sparks, next week.

What must I do to make you understand
You mean everything to me
Don’t have the strength to say
Give this heart of mine a chance
And maybe then you will see…
Refrain:
I’ll do anything, do anything that you tell me
I’ll be there, I’ll be there if you need me.
Chorus:
Reachin’ out to you
Do you feel it too
Lovin’ you is all I wanna do
I’m completely sure
I’ve never felt this way before
When I smile you know that there is something more.
What must I do so I can make you see
The light that shines in my eyes
You brighten up my day
You even help me find my way
I wish you’re always by my side
Refrain:
And I can’t stop, don’t know how to stop thinkin’ of you
And I’ll do anything, do anything to be near you…
Chorus:
Reachin’ out to you
Do you feel it too
Lovin’ you is all I wanna do
I’m completely sure
I’ve never felt this way before
Deep inside you know that there is something more.

It is nice to live here that I want my family to experience what I am experiencing now. I am not sure though that they would like it here.
I can say that I am enjoying the place because I can have everything that I need here.
I want different variations of pasta and I just walk and pay a dollar or two. I walk a few steps and I can get the scent that I want in a reasonable amount. I got bottles of massage oil in which I indulge after a long day of training. I can get fascinated by large selection of books from a nearby store and elsewhere, as well as reading cards that I use for divinition. I got a Sony VAIO, a Canon A2000 and my life is a whole bunch of fun!
My family is happy for me back home because I am here and I am having the luxury of signatured items and enjoyable living.
I am not being overwhelmed; I am simply enjoying the fruits of labor and realization of dreams.
Can you read this?
A familiar sentence from a book keeps on resounding in my mind: “That is what you call inspiration.”
